Walking By by Something Corporate
Tuning: standard, capo I
Verse:
GYour grand-dad left Bmhome for the Emcircus
GHe was young just likeBm me, with hEmope to Cexplore
GHe married a Bmgirl in VirgEminia, C
GShe could swing the tBmrapeze, Emthey could sleep on the Gfloor
Your mother was born in December
On the one sunny day that winter gave up
With warm summer eyes that flickered like fire flies
GWhen she stared at the Dworld
Chorus:
So Gwhy Amdo yBmou leCave
These sAmtories unfinished'
My GcheshAmire Bmcat dCoorstop
With Amtears in your eyes
GWhy Amdo yBmou lCook
When you've Amalready found it
GWhat dAmid yBmou fCind that could leAmave you
Walking by G Am Bm C Am
She was raised in a New England village.
Then she moved to LA with her firefly stare,
and you loved sunset strip when it sparkled,
you grew up and you sparkled but why don't you care'
So why do you leave these stories unfinished,
my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in her eyes'
Why do you look when you've already found me'
What did you find that could leave you walking by'
These nights I get high just from breathing.
When I lie here with you I'm sure that I'm real,
like that firework over the freeway.
I could stay here all day but that's not how you feel.
So why do you leave these questions unanswered'
The circus awaits and you're already gone.
My Cheshire cat doorstop with fear in your smile,
what makes it so easy for you to be walking by'
And what did I do that you can't seem to want me'
Why do we lie here and whisper goodbyes'
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me'
What makes it so easy for you to be walking by'
